    Best hook keeper ever is frame of first or second guide 😁

    Look at Get Bit Rainshadow Fly Blanks the UNIF models towards the bottom of the list, or Mud Hole CRB color series.
  3. MikeK's post in What would you do if your foam butt cap is was marked as the answer   
    Cut back the EVA and the grip tenon in 1/16" increments until it fits flush.  Without a lathe it may be difficult to get a straight cut on the EVA.  I've never had your case but often the butt cap is larger than the grip with CFX carbon fiber from Mud Hole.
  4. MikeK's post in Thread Tension Type was marked as the answer   
    I prefer tension on the sides of the spool with a flexible reverse tension device. I use 4 different wrappers at times and they all are set up that way.  Don't know about better but that is how I learned a long time ago.  Look at the CRB Core as an inexpensive basic but well designed hand wrapper.
